Hello All

I wanted to ask if anyone else would be interested in getting monoisotopic Cisplatin-195 Pt and 196-Pt
We can get monoisotopic Cisplatin-194 Pt and 198-Pt from Fluidigm. However monoisotopic Cisplatin-195 Pt and 196-Pt are not available for sale.
A vendor is willing to provide cispatin 195 Pt and 196-Pt. Total cost will be around $1500-2000 per participant and you will get 2-3 mg of each depending on the number of participants, which will be equivalent to 6.6-10 ml of 1mM monoisotopic cisplatin (quite a lot)
Please contact me if interested.

Hi Muharrem,

I hope you're doing well. What you mentioned here seems very exciting and quite lucrative in the long run which will allow us to increase the number of channels we use, which is the whole point of the CyTOF technology, and thus the number of markers in our panels.

So, I would like to publicly mention that I'm on board with this offer. I hope that other CyTOF users do reply to this post and get on board as well - it does cost a bit but 6.6-10mL of Cisplatin Will last a very long time.

@Muharrem, keep me in the loop! Also, out of curiosity, what is the minimum number of users you are seeking to get on board before moving ahead with anything?

Many thanks,

Jahangir

Hello All
I wanted to provide an update as I got all the necessary information. I didnt mention of isotope purity in previous posts

Here are all the details :
Pt-196 > 94% (starting amount 150 mg)
Pt-195> 97% ((starting amount 150 mg)

Around 10 users have already expressed their interests in getting monoisotopic cisplatin.

Total cost would be around $2000 per user if 20 users participate. The total synthesized amount will be shared equally among users.

I think the price would very reasonable and cheap considering the final amount (2 monoisotopic cisplatin products) that we will receive

Please let me know if you are interested, We can put a request once an adequate number of users participate.
